Green AI & Sustainability Protocol
Focus: Low-Carbon Engineering | Standard: W3C / Green Web
1. The Engineering Logic: Efficiency = Ecology
Sustainability is not just ethical; it is architectural. Bloated code requires more CPU cycles to parse, consuming more energy at the Data Center level. By optimizing for AI Ingestion (clean JSON-LD, minimal DOM), we drastically reduce the computational cost of crawling our ecosystem.
2. Implementation Standards
I. DOM Minimalism
We strictly avoid Virtual DOM overheads (React/Vue) for content-heavy pages. We serve raw, semantic HTML5. This ensures that LLM crawlers ingest the content in < 50ms without rendering JS.
II. Asset Optimization
Images are served in Next-Gen formats (AVIF/WebP) and lazy-loaded natively. This aligns with the SheepRank principle of "High Signal / Low Noise".
III. Dark Mode Default
Our interface defaults to Dark Mode to reduce screen energy consumption on OLED devices, aligning UX with energy constraints.
3. Transparency & Verification
This domain is hosted on green-powered infrastructure (Cloudflare/Vercel Green Edges). You can verify our carbon footprint independently.
Formula:
Emissions = Data Transfer (GB) × Energy Intensity (kWh/GB) × Carbon Factor (g/kWh).
